Chapter 3
She stood blankly at the door for a long time, until the night wind blew on her tear-stained face, and the cool feeling brought her back to her senses.
It was the hottest time of the summer, but she felt icy cold now.
She wiped her tears, took out the key and opened the door.
As soon as the lights were turned on, they were already lying in ambush, some with guns and some with kitchen knives. Seeing that there was no one behind them, they all seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Without saying a word, she walked to the sofa and slumped down, as if she had used up all her strength and could no longer stand.
Others also sat around her, but she couldn't hear anything they said. She just sat there in a daze.
It was a while before she heard Lai Xiujin calling her. They asked about her gains today, and Ouyang asked if she had lost her virginity.
She didn't want to say a word now, but she had no choice but to say it. She mumbled something to get rid of them.
Huang Lei said angrily: "Next time, you can trick him into the house like you did today and kill him with one shot."
Wang Jiazhi recalled Huang Lei's frightened look.
No one spoke after that, and she knew they were waiting for her to speak.
There was silence for a while. Seeing that she was still in a daze, Kuang Yumin signaled to Lai Xiujing.
The other people's expressions also became a little impatient, as if to say: "Why are you playing dumb?"
Lai Xiujing signaled them all to go first, leaving only the two girls in the room.
Lai Xiujin said: "You know what? He probably wants you to be his mistress. Do you know what to do?"
She said dully, "How to do it."
Lai Xiujin said impatiently: "Things between men and women!"
She looked out onto the balcony, where several boys were looking back at her. The anger in her heart finally dispelled her sadness.
"You've all discussed it!"
Lai Xiujin softened his tone and said, "Only Liang Runsheng has experience."
“And whores!”
She was so angry that she couldn't speak, and her chest was heaving violently.
Lai Xiujin was about to speak, but she said, "I don't need it. If I really want to be his mistress, I know what to do."
Lai Xiujin said in disbelief: "Stop joking, this is a life-threatening matter."
The corners of Wang Jiazhi's mouth twitched as she smiled coldly, thinking to herself, "Do you really know what a life-threatening situation is?"
Lai Xiujin held her hand and said earnestly, "It has come to this point. Everyone has done their best. We can't let it happen just because of you..."
She couldn't help but humph and sneered again.
I thought to myself, "What did you do to extinguish a bottle of wine?"
She broke free from Lai Xiujin's hand in disgust and said, "I know everyone has tried their best. I won't hold you back. I said I know what to do, I really do. I'm not lying to you, I'm tired!"
As she was about to go into the room, several other boys also came over from the balcony. Kuang Yumin called her and seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't open his mouth.
Without waiting for him to speak, she entered the room, slammed the door shut, and locked it behind her. This room was originally shared by her and Lai Xiujin, and she didn't care how she slept tonight, as long as no one was allowed to come in. She didn't want to be ruined again.
The night is getting deeper and deeper. In the quiet night, only the chirping of insects can be heard, and the flowers outside are quietly emitting fragrance.
She didn't sleep all night, thinking about the past. It was just three years of memories, but it weighed down like a mountain, making her feel dizzy and suffocated.
The day before, she'd been to Shuyu. She couldn't handle spicy food and had never been there before, so she was mocked by the wives of officials. The next day, she played mahjong all day. In the afternoon, she went to a jewelry store with him to get a ring. He held her hand and told her he was with her. At ten o'clock that night, she died.
In just one day, everything changed.
He must have been very disappointed. She was not a noble lady at all, but just a poor, hungry, and defiled girl. She also wanted to kill him. He must have felt very regretful. He mustered up the courage to trust someone, but chose the one he shouldn't have trusted.
